Jeffersonville police believe the Nov. 9 gunshot deaths of Courtney Grimm and Morgan Julius, and a subsequent house fire, were all the result of a suicide pact, the department said in a release Thursday.

While responding to a fire at the pair's 3001 Starview Court residence, Grimm, 27, and Julius, 26, were found by firefighters in a bathroom. The two were pulled out and the Clark County Coroner's Office later listed their cause of death to be from gunshot wounds, not the fire.
